Punta Cana Golf Courses

Punta Cana Golf

This section on Punta Cana golf courses is part of a series on the excursions and activities that are available in Puna Cana and Bavaro. See the box on the right for further information.

The Dominican Republic is not necessarily famous for its golf but in my humble opinion [as a former 4 handicapper who now hacks it round!] amongst the Puna Cana golf courses there is something for everyone!

Below we provide an idea of prices and further information about the choice available on your vacation to Punta Cana or Bavaro, along with our recommendations.

Having just returned from playing some in May 2009, we can confirm that they were particularly quiet in the afternoons. A top tip is to look for deals in the afternoon.

Where we do mention prices they are approximations of the cost including carts and transportation to and from your resort.

Cocotal Golf Club

Cocotal Golf Club is situated over the road from the Sol Melia Caribe Tropical and Paradisus Palma Real. This resort includes rounds of golf in the holiday price and they provide a shuttle bus over to the clubhouse.

Indeed the course is only the length of a par 5 from the Melia Caribe Tropical so some people will prefer to walk.

Punta Cana excursions, Bavaro, dominican republic, Caribbean It is a very good resort course and will cost around 156US per round to those who are not staying there.

La Cana Golf Course

La Cana course is one of my favourites as it has some spectacular holes running alongside the Caribbean sea.

Check out our video of the first nine holes below [if you want to see the second nine holes they are also on YouTube].
